Perfect place in the perfect setting

This was the second time staying here in Green Lake and we loved it once again. Both times were in the winter so the town is very quiet, but we would love to come back during the summer months when the tourism season is in full-swing. This rental is perfect for a couple's weekend get-away, or a family with small kids. You are right down town and about a block from the lake. Close enough for day trips to Fond Du Lac, Oshkosh and Ripon, or just driving around the lake enjoying the views. Make sure to visit Norton's Supper Club, Adam's Rib, the Goose Blind and Christiano's for meals - they will not disappoint!! Great communication with the owners and they live right upstairs and were quick to take care of any needs we had. Perfect place to stay - look no further! Book it!!

Perfect spot to stay in Green Lake

We had an amazing stay in Green Lake. The apartment was clean and so tastefully decorated, as well as offering all of our essential needs: a comfortable bed with lots of extra pillows and blankets, a large shower, a spacious kitchen with all we needed to take care of our culinary needs. The location was perfect too and we saw our super friendly hosts for a minute and they gave us great suggestions on local things to do! Overall: fabulous

Updated living in the middle of town.

This location was absolutely perfect for our two day stay in Green Lake. Walking distance to everything, drinks on the porch in the morning and evening, and the most cozy rental around. We will return for many more stays in the future.

Perfect getaway in Hallmark Movie town

We spent three nights in this rental and could not have asked for anything more. It was exactly as described and very comfortable to work virtually from in the morning and explore the area at night. Very clean and well decorated and the owners were quick to respond! Green Lake is a great lake town pulled from a Hallmark movie - we visited in the middle of winter when we pretty much had the town to ourselves, so we can only imagine how much fun this place would be during the summer. Great restaurants within a 30 mile radius and in town. Definitely a must stay if you are in the Oshkosh/Ripon/Fondu lac areas. We would definitely stay here again!

Most Relaxing Stay

This immaculate, well-appointed apartment is perfectly situated in the heart of downtown Green Lake, one block from the lake itself. The hosts, Kim and Craig, have set up everything needed for a relaxing getaway, including a wonderful kitchen for when you want to eat in. Somehow, even while being situated steps away from shopping, dining, and the water, the energy is calm and laid-back, perfect for slow mornings drinking coffee on the porch. We loved our stay, and we can’t wait to come back!

Family Trip

We had a great week in Green Lake! The location of our rental is perfect, the neighborhood is quiet and the town is so quaint and beautiful. Parking was easy and always available. Only wish we could have made it to more of the local eateries. Christianos is definitely one of our favorites for pizza! We would definitely return to the Spinnaker.

Perfect spot for a lake getaway

Kim and Craig's place was a great place for my working vacation. 1 block away from the lake in the center of town. Theys had everything you could possibly need for a comfy stay. The kitchen has al necessary tools to make your own meals if you choose not to walk to a local restaurant. I have stayed in many rentals over the years and this by far is at the top.

We had a great time! The hosts are amazing! The place was so cute! They paid great attention to details-small welcome gift, water in the fridge, robes to use, suggestions on where to eat/drink, etc. This place was also the perfect location, that is in walking distance to cute shops, the lake and more! Would stay here again!

Just gorgeous

What an amazing perfectly located property. The attention to detail and decor of this condo was awesome. Personalized robes and napkins made this place shine and stand out to me. Walk to everything that you could need in Green Lake. The owner Kim could not have been more accommodating and helpful from helping me get a boat slip to great recommendations. We will definitely be back.

Our families love for this little town found us wanting to help in making it better -we bought the building at the end of 2020 and just finishing up refurbishing it - it is in the perfect location to be apart of all the things that go on in town.
